walking

mumiza

A stroll

Conjures up calm companionship

But carefully I measure my step

 

The walk

Reaching for a hand snatched away

Carefully measuring my step

 

He strides ahead

I try and catch up

Carefully measuring my step

 

He falls behind me

My pace slows

Carefully measuring my step

 

A stroll

A meaning misunderstood

    This poem has deep meaning and is well planned and constructed. The build up is reinforced in the finish that gives it all meaning. Each step one of greater understanding and the repetition of the line gives it power. Loved it a fave
